I'm confused, you say Phoenix doesn't count as an animal word because it's a bird. But in the examples given by the mods chicken and egg are listed as acceptable animal words... For me the issue with Phoenix is to know if a mythical bird can be counted as an animal word.

So an enjoyable series, but not really one that sticks with you. Gotcha! Still, I'd be interested to try it one day. :)

I'm going to finish today, which can work for R, S or T. Then I'm going to try to finish (S, M or T) before the countdown, but I'm not entirely sure I'll be able to.

How do you like this series so far? I’ve always been curious about this series, but haven’t heard enough about it to really convince me to read it.

Yes, indeed. I started it just in case, to have a back-up book for the tags. And I'm fairly certain I can finish it before the end of the round. It is a fast read :)
So if you don't feel like having to power through An Ember in the Ashes, it's fine. I've got us covered.

I'm planning to reread the whole Uglies series. That's already a few U's

What? You're kidding! We were just complaining about U's in spell-outs...

I still have some U options, but nothing I'm really in the mood for right now.

I hope we get a good word next round :)

interesting question. Personally, I think we can classify dragons as big fire breathing lizards. I don't why we couldn't. :)

Thank you!"

For Fantasy I recommend:

And for Space Opera I cannot recommend enough. the series is very good as well.

Hmmm, I don't know. Those look more like cracks than stripes to me.

I would count it for stripes as well
